This is an article I wrote for an old blog at the beginning of the year. I spent too long, and lost too much of my soul, writing this for it to just fade away. Here it is.
Apparently I have masochistic tendencies because I’ve decided to listen to, and review, the winners of the Best Original Song Oscar over the years. I don’t know what possessed me to do this. I’m sure as hell not going to pay to download the songs, and I don’t download illegally because I’m a nice boy, so I’m going to rely on the song being on YouTube. Hey, I might even provide a link. How’s that for service?
Note: I usually hate every nominee in this category for each year. Also, even if a song is by Irving Berlin or someone else one is meant to like, if I think it’s bad then I’m going to say so.
One more thing: I haven’t checked the videos since I wrote the article so let me know if there are any dead links and I’ll try and fix them.
